Even for viewers who think they know all there is to know about the American Revolution, AMC's new spy series Turn has a few surprises in store.

"This isn't the Revolutionary War that we learned in school," star Jamie Bell tells TVGuide.com.

Set in late 1776, the show chronicles the momentous period in American history by going beyond the standard Loyalists vs. Patriots story and instead following the Culper Ring, a band of everyday citizens who were recruited to be spies for George Washington's army.

Check out this exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Turn to get a primer on the different factions portrayed in the series:

Turn debuts with a 90-minute premiere on Sunday at 9/8c on AMC. Will you watch?
